Definitions
- the present invention relates to a vehicle four wheel drive system having an inter-axle differential gear, and more particularly to a differential restricting mechanism for the inter-axle differential gear of such a four wheel drive system.
- the US-A 4 541 503 discloses a four wheel drive system for a motor vehicle having an inter-axle differential gear in addition to inter-wheel differential gears provided in respective ones of the front and rear wheel axles.
- the engine is located in the front part of the vehicle with the output shaft extending in the transverse direction of the vehicle.
- a transmission is provided at one axial end of the engine and connected with the output shaft of the engine to be driven thereby.
- the transmission has an output member connected with an input member of the interaxle differential gear which has two output members, one member being connected with the front wheel axle through a front inter-wheel differential gear and the other member being connected with the rear wheel axle through a transfer gear and a rear inter-wheel differential gear.
- the arrangement of this known system provides a compact structure in that the inter-axle differential gear is located on the front wheel axle coaxially with the front inter-wheel differential gear.
- the inter-wheel differential gear is located at a side of the itner-axle differential gear adjacent to the engine and the transfer gear is located at the opposite side of the inter-wheel differential gear with respect to the inter-axle differential gear.
- the inter- axle differential gear and the front inter-wheel differential gear are housed in the clutch housing in which the clutch is provided.
- the inter-axle differential gear is provided with a differential restricting mechanism for restricting the operation of the inter-axle differential gear.
- the input member of the inter-axle differential gear has a spline shaft portion which is formed with externally threaded spline teeth and the transfer gear which is connected with one of the output members of the inter- axle differential gear also has a spline shaft portion which is coaxial with the spline shaft portion on the input member and formed with externally threaded spline teeth aligned with the spline teeth on the spline portion on the input member.
- a sleeve member having internally threaded splines is provided on the spline shaft portions for axial slidable movement between an unlock position wherein the splines in the sleeve are disengaged from the splines on one of the spline shafts and a lock position wherein the splines in the spline shafts are engaged with the splines in the sleeve so that the input member of the inter-axle differential gear is directly connected with one output member.
- GB-A 1 252 753 Another vehicle four wheel drive system is disclosed in GB-A 1 252 753 which has an inter-axle differential gear provided with a multiple disc type clutch device for controlling the differential action of the differential gear.
- the known multiple disc type clutch device is considered as being advantageous in that the engagement and disengagement can be controlled quickly and precisely. This type of clutch can be readily used for automatic locking control of the inter-axle differential gear.
- the spline type locking device for the inter-axle differential gear of US-A 4 541 503 may be replaced by the multiple disc type clutch. It should however be noted that there will be inconveniencies in adopting the multiple disc type clutch in the system of US-A 4 541 503 because this type of clutch is of a relatively large diameter so that it requires a larger diametrical space as compared with the spline type clutch used in the system of US-A 4 541 503.
- US-A 3 400 777 teaches to locate the multiple disc type clutch between the planetary gear type inter-axle differential gear and a bevel gear which constitutes a transfer gear.
- US-A 3 492 890 shows a similar concept. This concept cannot be advantageously applied to the system of US-A 4 541 503 because the transfer gear must be sidewardly displaced with respect to the inter-axle differential gear in order to provide a space for locating the clutch and there will be produced a dead space around the clutch making the drive system bulky as a whole. It should further be noted that in case where the clutch is located between the inter-axle differential gear and the transfer gear, it will become difficult to have access to the clutch for maintenance and repair so that it will become necessary to disassemble the unit only for having an access to the clutch.
- GB-A 1 252 753 discloses a similar concept with respect to the location of the multiple disc type clutch for the locking device of the inter-axle differential gear, which concept also cannot solve the aforementioned problems.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle four wheel drive system having an interaxle differential gear which is provided with a differential restricting mechanism being provided by a multiple disc type clutch attanged ina compact manner.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle four wheel drive system having an inter-axle differential gear arranged on a wheel axle coaxially with an inter-wheel differential gear and having a differential restricting mechanism close to the transfer gear without producing any dead space.
- a vehicle four wheel drive system including an engine having an output shaft extending transversely of a vehicle body, a transmission having an input member and an output member extending transversely of the vehicle body and a speed ratio changing gear provided between the input and output members, said input member being connected with the output shaft of the engine, a planetary type inter-axle differential gear having an input member and two output members, said input member of the inter-axle differential gear being connected with the output member of the transmission, a first inter-wheel differential gear provided on first wheel axles and connected with one of said two output members of the inter-axle differential gear to drive said first axles, a second inter-wheel differential gear provided on second wheel axles, a transfer gear connected with the other of said two output members of the inter-axle differential gear to drive said second inter-wheel differential gear, said inter-axle differential gear and said transfer gear being located on said first wheel axles, said inter-wheel differential gear being located at a side of said inter-a
- the differential restricting mechanism is located coaxially with the transfer gear and the inter- axle and inter-wheel differential gears. Further, the differential restricting mechanism is located at an outermost position in the system including the transfer gear and the interaxle and inter-wheel differential gear. The position where the differential restricting mechanism is provided is a far from the engine so that it is relatively easy to find a space for the differential restricting mechanism.

- the clutch 50 is located at a side of the transfer gear 31 opposite to the inter-axle differential gear mechanism 9.
- the clutch 50 comprises an outer cylinder housing 51 which is connected with the axial extension of the differential casing 16 of the front inter-wheel differential gear mechanism 20.

- the clutch 50 is positioned at a side of the mating surface 63 opposite to the inter-axle differential gear mechanism 9. It will be understood that the arrangement is advantageous in that an access to the clutch 50 can be obtained simply by removing the transmission housing 8a having the extension 62.
- the clutch 50 for providing the differential lock mechanism is substituted by a viscous coupling 150.

- the assembly of the outer tube 151 a and the end plates 151 c and 151d is rotatably with respect to the inner tube 151b and approrpiate seals are provided between the end plates 151 and 151 and the inner tube 151 b to define a sealed chamber in the casing 151.

- the inner tube 151 carries a plurality of discs 153 which are interlaced with the discs 152 carried by the outer tube 151a.
- the casing is filled with viscous fluid such as silicon oil. The viscous coupling thus functions to prevent the speed difference between the differential casing 16 and the transfer gear 31 from being increased beyond a predetermined value.
